Q'.sub.1 as well as A.sup..crclbar., A'.sup..crclbar.,
A.sub.1.sup..crclbar. and A.sub.2.sup..crclbar. in formulae (1) and (3)
are derived from quaternising agents in which Q is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl,
--CH.sub.2 --CO--NH.sub.2,
##STR12##
Illustrative examples of such quaternising agents are acetyl bromide, ethyl
bromide, ethylene chlorohydrin, ethylene bromohydrin, epichlorohydrin,
epibromohydrin, dimethyl sulfate, diethyl sulfate and, preferably,
chloroacetamide.
Suitable aliphatic radicals R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4, R.sub.5 and
R.sub.6 in formulae (1), (3) and (4) are alkyl or alkenyl radicals of 12
to 24, preferably 16 to 22, carbon atoms. Such radicals are typically
n-dodecyl, myristyl, n-hexadecyl, n-heptadecyl, n-octadecyl, arachidyl,
behenyl, dodecenyl, hexadecenyl, oleyl and octadecenyl.
The compounds of components (a), (b) and (c) are disclosed in U.S. Pat. No.
4,444,564.
The compounds of component (a) of formula (1a) are prepared by addition of
2 to 15 mol of ethylene oxide to aliphatic amines which contain an
aliphatic radical of 12 to 24 carbon atoms, and in further optional steps,
converting the adduct into the acid monoester and then the acid monester
into the alkali or ammonium salt, or reacting the adduct with one of the
above quaternising agents. The compounds of component (b) of formula (1b)
are prepared by addition of 25 to 200 ml of ethylene oxide to aliphatic
amines which contain an aliphatic radical of 12 to 24 carbon atoms, and in
further optional steps, converting the adduct into the acid ester and then
acid ester into the alkali or ammonium salt, or reacting the adduct with
one of the above quaternising agents.
The compounds of formula (2) are prepared by addition of 80 to 140 mol of
ethylene oxide to a compound of formula
##STR13##
wherein R" is as defined for formula (2).
The starting amines required for the preparation of the compounds of
formulae (1), (3) and (4) may be saturated or unsaturated, branched or
unbranched hydrocarbon radicals of 12 to 24, preferably 16 to 22, carbon
atoms. The amines can be chemically homogeneous or are in the form of
mixtures. Mixtures of amines are preferably those formed upon the
conversion of natural fats or oils such as tallow oil, soybean oil or
coconut oil into the corresponding amines. Specific amines are typically
dodecylamine, hexadecylamine, octadecylamine, arachidylamine, behenylamine
and octadecenylamine. A mixture of C.sub.18 -C.sub.22 fatty amines and
tallow fatty amine is preferred. Tallow fatty amine is a mixture of ca.
30% of hexadecylamine, 25% of octadecylamine and 45% of octadecenylamine.
The addition of ethylene oxide as well as the esterification can be carried
out by methods known per se. Esterification can be carried out with
sulfuric acid or functional derivatives thereof such as chlorosulfonic
acid and, preferably, sulfamic acid,
The esterification is normally carried out by simple mixing of the
reactants, with heating, conveniently to a temperature in the range from
50.degree. to 100.degree. C. The free acids can subsequently be converted
into the alkali metal salts or ammonium salts by addition in conventional
manner of a base such as ammonia, sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide.
In the process of this invention, the auxiliary combination used comprises
10 to 80 parts, preferably 20 to 70 parts, of component (a), 5 to 70
parts, preferably 5 to 50 parts, of component (b), and 0 to 70 parts,
preferably 0 to 50 parts of the compound of component (c), and water to
make up 100 parts.
The amounts in which the auxiliary combination comprising components (a),
(b) and optionally (c) are added to the dyebath vary from 0.5 to 4 percent
by weight, based on the material to be dyed. It is preferred to use 1 to 2
percent by weight of the auxiliary combination, based on the material.
The weight ratio of component (a) to component (b) is from 1:5 to 10:1,
preferably from 1:2 to 5:1.
Suitable fibre material for dyeing by the process of this invention is
wool. The material can be in a wide range of presentation, for example
flocks, yarn, woven fabrics, knitted fabrics or carpets. The wool can have
a normal or nonfelting finish.
Reactive dyes suitable for dyeing wool which has a normal or nonfelting
finish by the process of this invention are the organic dyes known by this
term-irrespective of the nature of their reactive groups.
This class of dyes is listed under "Reactive Dyes" in the Colour Index, 3rd
Edition, 1971. They are predominantly dyes which contain at least one
group which reacts with polyhydroxyl (cellulose) fibres or polyamide
fibres, especially wool, a precursor of such a group, or a substituent
which reacts with polyhydroxyl (cellulose) fibres or polyamide fibres.
Particularly suitable reactive dyes are those selected from the series of
the monoazo, disazo or polyazo dyes, including the formazan dyes, as well
as of the anthraquinone, xanthene, nitro, triphenylmethane,
naphthoquinonimine, dioxazine and phthalocyanine dyes. The azo and
phthalocyanine dyes can be metallised as well as non-metallised.
Illustrative examples of reactive groups and precursors which form such
reactive groups are epoxy groups, the ethylenimide group, the vinyl group
in vinylsulfone or in the acrylic acid radical, as well as the
.beta.-sulfatoethylsulfone group, the .beta.-chloroethylsulfone group or
the .beta.-dialkylaminoethylsulfone group.
Reactive substituents of reactive dyes are those which are readily
removable and leave behind an electrophilic radical.
Suitable substituents of this kind are typically 1 or 2 halogen atoms in an
aliphatic acyl radical, for example in .beta.-position or in .alpha.- and
.beta.-position of a propionyl radical, or in .alpha.-and/or
.beta.-position of an acrylic acid radical, or 1 or 3 halogen atoms on the
following ring systems: pyridazine, pyrimidine, pyridazone, triazine,
quinoxaline or phthalazine.
It is also possible to use dyes containing two or more identical or
different reactive groups.
Preferred reactive dyes contain chloroacetyl, bromoacroyl or
dibromopropionyl as reactive substituents.
The reactive dyes can contain acid salt-forming substituents such as
carboxyl groups, sulfuric acid ester and phosphoric acid ester groups,
phosphonic acid groups or, preferably, sulfo groups.
Preferred reactive dyes are those which contain at least one sulfo group,
preferably reactive dyes of the azo or anthraquinone type which preferably
contain two or three sulfo groups.
Mixtures of reactive dyes can also be used, in which case bichromatic and
trichromatic dyeings can be produced.
Dyeing is carried out by the exhaust process. The amount of dye added to
the dye liquor will depend on the desired colour strength. Amounts of 0.01
to 10 percent by weight, preferably 0.01 to 2 percent by weight, based on
the weight of the fibre material, have generally been found useful.
The liquor ratio may be chosen within a wide range, typically from 1:3 to
1:100, preferably from 1:8 to 1:30.
The dyebaths may contain mineral acids such as sulfuric acid or phosphoric
acid, organic aicds, preferably aliphatic carboxylic acids such as formic
acid, acetic acid, oxalic acid or citric acid, and/or salts such as
ammonium acetate, ammonium sulfate or sodium acetate. The acids are used
in particular to adjust the pH of the liquor, which is in the range from 4
to 5.
The dye liquors may contain further ingredients, such as wool protective
agents, dispersants amd wetting agents as well as antifoams.
The process of this invention does not require special apparatus. The
conventional dyeing machines such as open baths and machines for dyeing
slubbing, hanks or packages, jiggers, paddle dyeing machines, beam dyeing
machines, circulating liquor or jet dyeing machines or winchbecks, can be
used.
Dyeing is conveniently carried out in the temperature range from 60.degree.
to 120.degree. C., preferably from 70.degree. to 105.degree. C. The dyeing
time is within normal limits and is ordinarily from 20 to 120 minutes.
Upon completion of dyeing, the dyeing process may be followed by an
aftertreatment with alkali, typically with aqueous ammonia, an alkali
metal hydroxide, an alkali metal carbonate or hydrogencarbonate or
hexamethylenetriamine. The pH of the alkali-containing dyebath is
conveniently in the range from 7.5 to 9, preferably from 8 to 8.5.
Dyeing of the fibre material is conveniently carried out by briefly
treating the goods with an aqueous liquor which contains the acid and the
auxiliary combination comprising components (a) and (b) and optionally
(c), and which has a temperature of 30.degree.-60.degree. C., and adding
the reactive dye to the same bath. The temperature is then slowly raised
so as to be able to dye in the temperature range from
80.degree.-100.degree. C. for 20 to 90 minutes, preferably for 30 to 60
minutes. The dyed goods are then treated, as required after the addition
of alkali, preferably sodium hydrogencarbonate or sodium carbonate, for 10
to 20 minutes at 70.degree.-90.degree. C. Finally, the dyed material is
removed from the bath and rinsed, acidified and dried in conventional
manner.
The invention further relates to the auxiliary combination which comprises,
as component (a), 10 to 80 parts of the compound of formula
##STR14##
as component (b), 5 to 70 parts of the compound of formula
